Ah yes, I looked back at your initial reply:

Well obviously I didn't quite understand what you were getting at, because a few posts later I asked how you'd be able to tell about copy/paste anyway.

I did build a model, that's not a toy, it's a painted balsa wood miniature I made myself. Obviously I did something right since you thought it was a manufactured toy!

I'm not going to make a ugly craft like that. I'm not going to spend hours and hours building something, just to prove to you it can be faked, not when I wouldn't want to keep the model. Instead I'll use one of my other models, that I've built myself. Maybe I'll build a aircraft model and put that in as well, next to a real picture of the same aircraft, and have you try to figure out which one's real. But to make things tricky (50-50 are good chances after all) I could take more than one picture and add them.

You up for the dare?

Then again, I will have spent hours making a miniature, spending money on batteries to take pictures, time in graphics programs, for what? You can still claim it's not good enough.

For now I'll just use the models I have. But since they're from Star Wars I guess I could take pictures from the movie and add those, and see if you can tell the difference.

How's that?
